22 International Design Awards for a "pure formal research, in its intentional geometricity. Is it still an automobile or it is the module of a spaceship of "2001: A space Odyssey"?" Lorenzo Ramaciotti.

The Modulo is considered an icon of Italian design for what it expresses and evokes. Bearing witness to the creativity of our country in dozens of shows around the wrold.

It won more than 20 international prizes. An experimental one-box model, it was fitted on a chassis housing a rear mid Ferrari engine 60° V12.

"We have always aimed to combine form and function with our idea-cars. In this sense, the Modulo is unusual in its own way, closing a particular period of research, often exaggerated, into pure forms. Still today they represent the seed of innovative aesthetics, heralding formal and philosophical ideas that are now more current than ever. More than could have been imagined then, in 1970."

Sergio Pininfarina.
